I have a 250 that I had set up on a 10 footer for bucktailing the inlets on the south shore of LI. Same type of current situation as the canal. Most of the time I was throwing 4-5 oz bucks. I had 50 lb PP on it and could throw those bucks a mile with great sensitivity. My only problem was had to use some tape on the fingers to avoid line cuts from the braid. I think it will be a good match and the reel is tough as nails with a great drag.
